Wyoming Income Tax Brackets 2026

Does Wyoming have state income tax brackets in 2026?

No. Wyoming levies no state income tax on wages in 2026, so there is no state bracket schedule at all. A single filer earning $75,000 in Wyoming pays $0 of state income tax; only federal income tax and FICA come out of the paycheck.

Wyoming is one of the nine states with no tax on wage income in 2026. That does not make pay tax-free: federal brackets still apply in full, and the state collects its revenue through other channels such as sales and property taxes instead.

Why there is no Wyoming bracket table

Most states publish a schedule that taxes each slice of income at a rising rate. Wyoming has no such schedule for wages, because the state does not tax wage and salary income at all. Whatever your salary, the state income tax line on the calculation is zero, in 2026 and in every year the current law has been in force.

State revenue has to come from somewhere, and in Wyoming the load falls on consumption and property instead: statewide and local sales taxes on purchases, and property taxes on real estate. When comparing a job offer in Wyoming with one in a taxing state, weigh those costs alongside the income tax you save.

The brackets that still apply in Wyoming: federal, 2026

In Wyoming, only the federal schedule applies to wages: 10% on the first $12,400 of taxable income for a single filer, rising through six more brackets to 37% above $640,600, all after the federal standard deduction of $16,100 ($32,200 for married filing jointly). Against that backdrop, the state layer is where Wyoming wins its advantage, as the comparison with Hawaii shows:

$150,000$0$9,928$9,928

How Wyoming pays for state government instead

Wyoming funds state government largely through mineral severance taxes on coal, oil, and natural gas, which lets it skip both a personal and a corporate income tax. Sales and property taxes are comparatively moderate, and the state is a common choice for trust and LLC formation.

What a $75,000 salary keeps in Wyoming

On a $75,000 salary, a single filer in Wyoming pays $7,670 of federal income tax and $5,738 of FICA, and nothing to the state, keeping $61,593. The same salary in Hawaii loses a further $4,170 to state income tax, which is the whole $4,170 difference between the two paychecks before either state's sales and property taxes enter the picture.
